Hey Jimmy Egypts the go bro 
Ok no wind so joke time... and i'll not mention that famous song 'tie me kangaroo down sport' either 
A kiwi bloke walks into the bedroom where the missus is lying...
with a sheep under his arm and says 'This is the pig i have to shag everytime youve got a headache'
she replies 'thats not a pig thats a sheep'
He replies ' Im not talking to you - youve got a headache' 
BAaa haaa haaa non patriotic but just as funny az ... tie me kangaroo down sport
come on guys... there must be loads of you that want the park to be built. reply and show your support!
Spent many many many days skiing at the cable park in Spearwood from age 12 (couldn't even hang on around the corners on fast speed and did the 'superboy' every time!
) up until my mid 20s.
In the early 90s I used to be part of the club there skiing etc on winter nights.. Brrr brrr!!
a hot milo and a hot ended pacifier went extremely well after that!! Let me tell you cranking up to 52km p/hr and faceplanting the cold dense water, after a decent jump, knocks the Aurthur and Marther about!! 
Would be worth the treck in the off season. Hope it gets up. Great for non ski boat folks to be able to access skiing. Kn good fun as a kid skiing for 2 hrs straight.
Bugger! Finally gave away my trick ski in new condition only a couple of months ago.
) up until my mid 20s.
Yep - bring it, been sayin it for years bring it back! didnt someone say the equipment used for cables( motors/cables etc) is still aorund somewhere in Perth and could be re conditioned? would be soo good to be able to get a trick or two down pat with the help of a cable park. my vote is in
) up until my mid 20s. Yep dusta - not enough strength to stay on the ski after the jolt - but by christ I'm not lettin go of the handle until I get back to the start!! Great fun.

You could always come for a trip over to bli bli. If you look around for cheap flights at random times, and also ring the cable park and tell them your comming for a few days with a few mates and want a deal you can actually do it pretty cheap.
A few of the melbourne boys have been comming up every now and again. Also a few NZ guys have come over lately as well.
There's some random clips from bli bli in the last 2 Tweak and Presty **** show vids. (vid's where they just put together random crap laying around on there hardrives for others to laugh at).
Hope you guys get a cable and some good obstacles.
tweak an presty chillin in da cleft. -noice. an faaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk yeah lets get a cable park in perth. -i'll prepay my 12mth membership in advance yo.
We need one of these here for the crappy 30knot - I mean 3 knot days 
Maybe with the increase in kiteing popularity, it would work well this time because of a new market that is not limited to those owning a ski boat 
biggest problem that they been having so far from what i understand is council approval. and land, they had something near bonneys ski shop but council said no due to affecting something.
but hell yes please bring a cable back to perth!
Where do I sign up
Oh yeh Facebook dun that
What about Burswood there's plenty of Lakes and Ponds around there and easily accessible by public transport.
Consider another 12 month membership paid up if it happens.
yer the thing about those lakes is the councils wont let em use it cos it disrupts the wildlife n crap like that! its flat out BS really..
consider 4 consecutive 12month memberships on my name
i have my own cable park!! well not really, i have a big tramp, then got my old bar with rope attached bike tires round a tree, then i got my old skateboard bolted on my old shoes and its siiiick!!!
but still a cable would be great, especially for winter,
im bored as hell now!!!
maybe we could make a partition?
If it happens, it`s got my support and membership. But from my experience living in Perth, the fun police (councils, local community groups) will do their best not to make it happen.
I learnt to ski behind a boat at the Burswood bend (right next to where the Farmer Fwy cuts thru now) around 80'. 
Good times.
That would be an unreal spot. Wishful thinking tho.
i spent weeks on end hanging out at thorpe park cable in england early 90s
some of the good guys at the time doin s bends of the corners, raleys of a standing start as the cable flicks by at 50, face plants barefoot in 3 degrees ah the memories, awsome
would love a park in perth, dont need a lake, ****in dig a hole man
great fitness, great social(kiting pretty insular when your on your own for 2hrs) for kids n stuff as well now im old
I miss spearwood too, many fine faceplants and enemas were had. Cable parks make it possible for the avergage can't afford a boat person to have a go. I'll bring a shovel if anyone needs a hand digging a new lake
The old owners of the Spearwood park still have the gear still in a couple of sea containers. They have been super keen to get one back up but cant find a suitable site.. with Perth's super (non)affordable land prices and all.
